Ocean Signal MOB1 avarinės balizės tvirtinimo kilpa prie gelbėjimosi liemenės

This attachment loop is an essential spare part designed to securely attach your Ocean Signal MOB1 distress beacon to the inflation system of your lifejacket.

It ensures the beacon remains attached to the lifejacket bladder during inflation. This allows correct deployment of the antenna and optimal transmission of AIS and ASN signals in case of a man-overboard situation.

No, this bracket is specifically designed for the Ocean Signal MOB1 beacon. It is not suitable for other models such as the PLB1 or beacons from other brands.

The buckle is designed to fit the vast majority of inflatable lifejackets, whether automatic or manual. It typically secures safely around the oral inflation tube of the bladder.

The loop slides and clips directly around the oral inflation tube or the mounting strap provided for this purpose on the bladder of your PFD. Simply interlock the two parts of the mount to secure the beacon.

No, the mounting bracket installs entirely by hand and requires no special tools. The clip system is designed for simple, quick assembly.

It is strongly recommended to visually inspect the integrity of the fixing loop during the annual service of your lifejacket, or before starting a long offshore passage.

Although classified under an old nomenclature, this simply means it is intended for maintaining existing equipment. It remains fully essential and functional for keeping your current MOB1 beacon operational.

It is strongly discouraged to store the MOB1 beacon loosely in a pocket. Without its mounting loop, the beacon may fail to deploy automatically when the lifejacket inflates, compromising the transmission of your distress signal.

Once the part is clipped in, pull very gently on the beacon to ensure it does not slide along the tube. The attachment must be firm and the beacon must remain flush against the bladder of the lifejacket without restricting its volume.

Yes, this is an Ocean Signal original spare part (reference OS-741S-01803), ensuring perfect compatibility and maximum reliability with your safety equipment.

This product includes only the plastic mounting loop. The MOB1 distress beacon and the lifejacket are sold separately.

The installation can easily be done by yourself thanks to its intuitive mounting system. However, if you are unsure about the positioning, it is advisable to seek advice from a service station during your lifejacket's maintenance.

No. If installed correctly, the buckle is designed with smooth, rounded edges to pose no risk of abrasion or puncture to the inflatable bladder of your lifejacket.

Yes, like all Ocean Signal marine safety equipment, this loop is made from robust polymers specifically designed to withstand the marine environment, salt, and UV rays.

The loop design requires precise mounting direction. Ensure the top of the beacon (where the antenna deploys) points upward toward your face once the lifejacket is inflated.

Yes, the mounting loop is compatible with most release systems, including Hammar hydrostatic systems. The loop typically attaches to the oral inflation tube, which is separate from the automatic firing mechanism.

If you notice any cracks, deformation, or weakness in the plastic, you must replace the loop immediately to avoid losing your beacon during an offshore deployment.

No, a lifejacket is designed to accommodate a single personal locator beacon. Adding multiple devices to the bladder could impede proper inflation and buoyancy.

Integrating an MOB1 beacon with its original mount is standard practice and does not interfere with the lifejacket's operation. You only need to ensure the loop's positioning does not obstruct the protective cover's folding.
